Hi Newcastle people. I'm hoping that someone has a spare cycling cap that I can borrow for a couple of days for a photo shoot my friend is doing for a college project. Any help is appreciated!

That's a hub brake on the back right? lovely bike, GLWS

Would want to avoid rust where possible but if you can send me some pics I'll take a look. :)

Anyone else got something to offer?

Not for me that one, sorry. :)
Ideally looking for something a little older and lugged but I know I'm getting picky now.

I should have also said, I'm up in Newcastle so postage would be needed.

Hi,

I'm looking to replace my current track frame which is damaged more than I deem safe anymore.

I'm looking to spend about 200-250 and definitely only want steel.

A 56" would be okay too

Any help would be great :)

Does anyone know where I could pick up an inner tube at this time? Or does anyone have one I could buy? Need one for my job tonight. cheers

This is a good one.

I know exactly where this is but my bike is out of action for the foreseeable future...

I'm heading back to Newc in a week or two for round two at Uni and thought I'd make myself a bit more social on the riding front. If you see me around stop me and say hi.

My mug with the missus - duck face n all...

i got a late 50s triumph roadster, owned from new by my ex's granddad. Before he died he gave it to me in the hope I'd use it more than him. Nice man, nice bike. Did a full refurb on it a couple of years back and its my sunny day cruiser now.

Newcastle Uni life can take its toll...

I had gone round to the next door flat in my block to help celebrate whatever it was we had decided needing celebrating that night and quickly got into the swing of drinking. We decided to get pissed in the flat and then stumble off into the city centre later.

After a couple of hours and a large amount of vodka, I realised that I needed to slow down before heading out so decided to get some fresh air and take a moment to my severely drunken self.

In the lift back up to the flat I decided I needed a loo stop too before heading into town with everyone who were now leaving. I was found 4 hours later still on my loo stop vomit everywhere and trousers round my ankles. The next door flat had to break the door down because I apparently refused to let them in til i 'sobered myself up'...

Any chance of getting a closer look at the BB area?

I'll happily take the forks if you still have them. Im not back in newcastle until monday so if you need rid beforehand feel free to offer them elsewhere

^^ that's lush. Not a fan of coloured tyres usually. Needs a new spoke though...

Looking for front wheels of any size (12" to 29") to either borrow or have for use in a Uni animated film project. Thanks :)

Bump! Really good stuff this. Thanks again!

2nd dibs gold finger and caliper

first build, yes. First fixed bike, no.

Ive had several fixed bikes. Just never built one from the frame up.

Ive done stupid stuff, but I don't have a death wish :-)

the same way anyone else does who rides brakeless.

Usually by ploughing into the emergency... :-)

i guess I'm gonna find out that i should be...

Just a chain away from finished!

This has taken me far too long!
